The 2.40 Ga Ringvassøy mafic dykes, West Troms Basement Complex, Norway: The concluding act of early Palaeoproterozoic continental breakup

A north to northwest trending mafic dyke swarm of gabbronoritic and gabbroic composition makes up a significant part of the Archean basement on the island of Ringvassøy in northern Norway. U–Pb geochronology of zircon and baddeleyite in a gabbronorite provides an age of emplacement of 2403 ± 3 Ma. Metamict zircon in a plagioclase phyric dyke yield data that are discordant but consistent with the age of the gabbronoritic dyke. Titanite indicates a metamorphic overprint at 1768 ± 4 Ma. The two types of dyke show some distinct chemical characteristics. They are both tholeiitic, enriched in LREEs and LILE elements but depleted in HFS elements including Nb. Their Nd isotopic composition yields _Nd values of −1.5 to −1.8 for gabbronorites and −0.4 to +1.3 for the plagioclase phyric dykes. The chemical and isotopic constraints are typical of continental basalts.The Ringvassøy mafic dykes correlate broadly with a global Palaeoproterozoic magmatic event that formed extensive bimodal intrusive and extrusive suites in most Archaean cratons, including the northeastern Fennoscandian Shield. In detail, the 2403 ± 3 Ma Ringvassøy dykes postdated most episodes of magmatism at this time. On the regional scale there is a distinct trend from a 2505–2490 Ma suite present in the Kola Peninsula, over a second 2460–2440 Ma suite present both in Kola and further south in Karelia, to the 2403 Ma dykes on Ringvassøy. This variation suggests that the locus of maximum extension and magmatic activity may have been shifting with time.     

东昆仑造山带早中生代镁铁质岩墙群LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年、元素和Sr-Nd-Hf同位素地球化学

东昆仑造山带白日其利镁铁质岩墙群以苏长辉长岩为主,含少量含斑辉绿岩,LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学指示该套岩墙群结晶侵位年龄为251±2Ma.岩石具有中等的Mg#(31～50)和高铝(16.25％～19.49％)的特征,整体属于钙碱性玄武岩系列岩石(Na2O+ K2O =2.75％～3.51％;FeOT/MgO=1.02～2.22);微量和稀土元素方面,岩石具有较低的稀土总量、轻稀土轻微富集和Eu正异常特征(ΣREE =52.16×10-6～99.81×10-6,(La/Yb)N =2.08～5.49,δEu=1.0～1.3),所有岩石富集LILE(如Rb、Ba和Pb等)而亏损HFSE(如Nb、Ta、P和Ti等),且具有显著不同于地壳的不相容元素组成(如Nb/Ta比值).岩墙具有富集的Sr-Nd同位素组成((87Sr/86 Sr)i=0.71103～0.71502,εNd(t)=-7.4～-3.6),具有相对集中且显著不同于地壳岩浆的Hf同位素组成(εHf(t)=-2.37～1.07).元素地球化学和同位素研究指示镁轶质岩浆起源于流体交代的富集地幔Ⅱ,并未受到显著的地壳混染.构造环境分析表明,岩石具有岛弧和洋中脊玄武岩双重特征.结合区域构造演化分析,我们认为,在晚二叠世-早三叠世时期,在俯冲环境下,板片流体交代使上覆地幔楔发生富集,形成富集地幔Ⅱ,随着该区伸展作用的加强,在早三叠世,进一步诱发了富集地幔的部分熔融并产生镁铁质岩浆,最终侵位结晶就形成了白日其利镁铁质岩墙群.     

扬子克拉通北缘随(州)-枣(阳)地区新元古代变质岩浆岩的地球化学和SHRIMP锆石U-Pb年代学研究

扬子克拉通北缘的随州-枣阳地区是整个秦岭-桐柏山-大别山-苏鲁造山带及其前陆地区受三叠纪(印支期)扬子板块向华北板块深俯冲并发生高压-超高压变质作用影响最小的地区,因而扬子板块北缘的前寒武纪基底在这里得到了较多的保存。它们不仅为研究扬子板块北缘新元古代构造环境和岩石圈性质提供了难得的样品,也为研究造山带内变质杂岩的原岩性质及高压-超高压变质作用过程中元素的地球化学行为提供了参照物。这里出露的前寒武纪基底包括新元古代的变质火山-沉积岩系(随州群)以及大量的超镁铁质-镁铁质岩床群。其中构成随州群的岩性包括变酸性火山岩、变沉积岩及少量的变基性火山岩。超镁铁质-镁铁质岩床群以橄长岩为主,少量辉长苏长岩和辉石岩。本文用SHRIPM锆石U-Pb法测得随州群中变质流纹英安质凝灰岩和变质粗面安山岩及超镁铁质-镁铁质岩床群中橄长岩的侵位年龄分别为763±7Ma、741±7Ma和632±6Ma。随州群火山岩的年龄与桐柏山-大别山-苏鲁造山带内高压-超高压变质杂岩的原岩年龄类似,至于造山带内榴辉岩的原岩年龄是否有类似于橄长岩的侵位年龄(631.5±6.1Ma),尚需进一步研究。地球化学上,随县群的酸性火山岩表现出强烈亏损Sr和高场强元素Nb、Ta,富集Rb、Ba、U、Th、K等强不相容元素和轻稀土元素,轻、重稀土元素之间的分馏程度强((La/Yb)_N=10.44)、弱负Eu异常(δEu=0.75),总体特征类似于大别山-苏鲁造山带内大量出露的黑云斜长片麻岩和裂谷环境下形成的双峰式火山岩的酸性端元。随县群玄武岩的稀土元素之间几乎无分馏((La/Yb)_N=1.78~1.79),高场强元素Nb和Ta相对于La无明显的亏损,总的地球化学特征类似于造山带内大多数的榴辉岩。橄长岩以高Al₂O₃和MgO含量、低TiO₂和碱为特征,轻、重稀土元素之间的分馏程度较强((La/Yb)_N=5.49),尤以强的Ba、Sr及Eu正异常(δEu=1.22)为显著特征,表明其中有较多的富钙斜长石聚集。高场强元素Nb、Ta、U、Th(以及Zr和Hf)无明显的异常,表明其形成过程中未受到大陆地壳的混染,岩浆源区属富集型地幔。     

Equilibrium vs. disequilibrium melting relations in theHigher Himalayan Crystalline (HHC) pelitic migmatites,Sikkim Himalaya

Higher Himalayan Crystalline (HHC) complex of the Sikkim Himalaya predominantly consists of high-grade pelitic migmatites. In this study, reaction textures, mineral/bulk rare earth elements (REE), trace element partition coefficients and trace element zoning profiles in garnet are used to demonstrate a complex petrogenetic process during crustal anatexis. With the help of equilibrium REE and trace element partitioning model, it is shown that strong enrichment of Effective Bulk Composition (EBC) is responsible for the zoning in garnet in these rocks. The data strongly support disequilibrium element partitioning and suggest that the anatectic melts associated with mafic selvedges are likely produced by disequilibrium melting because of fast melt segregation process.     

华北板块北缘中段早中二叠世的构造属性：来自花岗岩类锆石U-Pb年代学及地球化学的制约

内蒙古温都尔庙南-铁沙盖黑云角闪石英闪长岩和角闪黑云花岗闪长岩位于华北板块北缘中段晚古生代构造岩浆活动带中;锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年结果显示,其形成时代分别为271.8±2.4Ma,271.4±1.3Ma、268.7±1.3Ma。主量元素SiO₂含量61.42%~71.73%,K₂O含量3.10%~5.11%,K₂O/Na₂O值介于0.93~1.96之间,Mg^#值介于42.54~49.93之间,A/CNK为0.90~1.03;副矿物为锆石、磷灰石和磁铁矿,属亚碱性高钾钙碱性系列、I型花岗岩类;富集轻稀土(LREEs)、大离子亲石元素(LILEs,Cs、Rb、K、Ba、Th和U),亏损重稀土元素(HREEs)及高场强元素(HFSEs,Nb、Ta和Ti),弱Eu负异常(δEu=0.55~0.95),形成于活动大陆边缘弧环境,是上地壳部分熔融的产物。黑云角闪石英闪长岩和角闪黑云花岗闪长岩中发育大量暗色微粒包体(黑云闪长岩),包体可能是岩石圈地幔部分熔融的产物,相对于寄主岩石贫Si、K富Fe、Mg、Ca、Ti、大离子亲石元素(LILEs,Rb、Cs、Sr和U)和高场强元素(HFSEs,Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf)。本文花岗岩类的侵位反映了早中二叠世古亚洲洋俯冲于华北板块北缘之下及岩浆混合作用的岩浆事件。     

Geochronology and paleomagnetism of mafic igneous rocks in the Olenek Uplift, northern Siberia: Implications for Mesoproterozoic supercontinents and paleogeography

We present a new, reliably dated Mesoproterozoic paleopole for Siberia, based on a combined geochronological and paleomagnetic study of mafic rocks within the Mesoproterozoic Sololi Group of the Olenek Uplift in northern Siberia. Ion microprobe (SHRIMP) U–Pb analysis yields crystallisation ages of 2036 ± 11 Ma for zircon from a basement granite and 1473 ± 24 Ma for baddeleyite from a large dolerite sill within the Kyutingde Formation. The baddeleyite result indicates that the lower Sololi Group is significantly older than was suggested by previous K–Ar results. Paleomagnetic analysis of the dolerite sill and related mafic intrusive rocks yields a paleopole at 33.6°N, 253.1°E, A₉₅ = 10.4°. A positive baked-contact test between the Kyutingde sill and sedimentary country rocks shows that the magnetisation is primary. Comparison of this paleopole with coeval results for Laurentia provides a revised reconstruction between Siberia and Laurentia, and implies that these two continents were parts of a single Mesoproterozoic supercontinent since at least 1473 Ma. We argue that Siberia, Laurentia, and Baltica belonged to the same supercontinent between 1473 Ma and mid-Neoproterozoic time.     

西藏甲玛铜多金属矿床暗色包体岩石成因:对岩浆混合和成矿的启示

岩浆混合作用的研究对揭示壳幔相互作用,探讨成岩成矿过程具有重要意义。甲玛矿区位于冈底斯成矿带东段,为超大型斑岩-矽卡岩型铜多金属矿床,矿区内的中酸性岩浆岩中普遍发育暗色包体,对其中的暗色包体中的闪长质包体开展详细的岩相学、岩石地球化学、Hf同位素地球化学及U-Pb同位素地质年代学等方面研究以期查明岩石成因,为岩浆混合作用和成矿作出启示,完善甲玛成岩成矿模型。岩相学观察表明,闪长质包体及寄主岩浆岩中存在多种反映岩浆混合作用的典型组构,如长石-石英熔蚀结构、石英镶边结构、长石交代筛状结构、长石反环带结构、磷灰石针柱状结构等,锆石LA-ICP-MS UPb同位素定年结果显示,包体形成时代(15. 3±0. 3Ma)与中酸性寄主岩石在误差范围内一致,也符合了岩浆混合作用的存在。闪长质包体化学成分上类似高Mg埃达克岩(MgO=3. 53%～6. 62%,Sr/Y=20～57,(La/Yb)N=51～64),具有低SiO_2(52. 44%～59. 45%),高K_2O(3. 19%～5. 62%),高相容元素(Ni=86×10~(-6)～146×10~(-6); Cr=102×10~(-6)～228×10~(-6))的特征,∑REE高于中酸性寄主岩浆岩,且轻重稀土分异明显((LREE/HREE)N=21～23),富集LILE(Rb=189×10~(-6)～284×10~(-6),Sr=498×10~(-6)～658×10~(-6),Ba=1247×10~(-6)～1378×10~(-6)),相对亏损HFSE(Nb、Ta、Ti),在稀土元素配分图及微量元素蛛网图中闪长质包体介于冈底斯带碰撞后时期的超钾镁铁质岩(来源于富集的岩石圈地幔)与甲玛中酸性寄主岩浆岩(主要来源于加厚新生下地壳)之间,Hf同位素(ε_(Hf)(t)=-0. 9～4. 6)同样也介于超钾镁铁质岩与花岗闪长斑岩(代表中酸性寄主岩浆)之间。这些特征说明闪长质包体是富集的岩石圈地幔部分熔融形成的镁铁质岩浆与加厚新生下地壳部分熔融形成的中酸性岩浆发生混合的产物,同时指示了东冈底斯带中新世时期也存在岩石圈地幔伸展对流减薄事件,以及证实了南拉萨地体广泛分布的高钾埃达克质岩在形成过程中,伴随着与富集岩石圈地幔来源的超钾镁铁质岩浆发生不同程度混合。此外,富集的岩石圈地幔部分熔融形成的镁铁质岩浆的混入,将会为中酸性岩浆系统加入大量的水和金属物质,这也是控制甲玛超大型斑岩-矽卡岩型矿床形成的关键因素。     

江绍断裂带晚中生代镁铁质火山岩成因及其深部过程意义

本文对沿江绍断裂带的江山和浦江两地区中生代镁铁质火山岩进行了Ar-Ar年代学、岩石学和元素-同位素地球化学研究。Ar-Ar年代学结果显示,江山玄武岩的形成年龄约为99Ma,为晚白垩世喷发产物;浦江玄武岩和玄武质安山岩的喷发时间为111～112Ma,属于早白垩世。两区中生代镁铁质火山岩都为中钾钙碱性系列,根据其地球化学指标可划分为三组:第1组为江山OIB型玄武岩,在微量元素组成上无Nb-Ta亏损和Pb负异常,高ε_(Nd)(t)和低(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_i比值,总体上显示出类似洋岛玄武岩的元素-同位素组成特征;第2组为高钛磷玄武岩,Nb-Ta弱负异常和明显Pb正异常,中等ε_(Nd)(t)和(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_i比值;第3组为低钛磷玄武岩,强烈Nb-Ta负异常和中等Pb正异常,低ε_(Nd)(t)(-6.0～-3.7)和高(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_i为特征。三组镁铁质火山岩相互之间缺乏分异演化关系,也不是同一母岩浆经历地壳混染作用的结果。对比三组镁铁质火山岩的La/Nb、Ba/Nb、Zr/Ba比值和Sr-Nd同位素模拟结果,我们认为江绍断裂带晚中生代玄武岩为软流圈-岩石圈相互作用的产物,从早期(111～112Ma)到晚期(99Ma)镁铁质岩浆地幔源区软流圈组分的比例越来越多而岩石圈成份逐渐减少的趋势。考虑到该区晚中生代的盆岭构造格局与邻区郴州-临武断裂带同时期镁铁质岩浆的产出特点,华南地区在早白垩世晚期到晚白垩世期间发生了强烈的岩石圈伸展-减薄作用。     

Characteristics of Temperature Distribution and Control factors in Geothermal Field

In recent years, China has carried out large‐scale exploration, exploitation and utilization of geothermal resources, but there is no unified understanding of the distribution characteristics of geothermal field and the controlling factors of forming geothermal field. As for the heat source, some scholars think it is the contribution of radioactivity, fault, magma chamber, or an abnormal heat source, and even the heat generated by the influence of the tectonic movement. As a result, many exemplary geothermal explorations have made great mistakes. After drilling at a depth of 3000‐5000m, the temperature obtained is not as good as the common low‐temperature sedimentary basin, and the losses are huge and extremely uneconomical.     

东南极格罗夫山镁铁质麻粒岩的变质作用

东南极内陆－格罗夫山存在一套经历了麻粒岩相变质作用的镁铁质麻粒岩和斜长角闪岩。变质反应结构显示该区多为单一的区域性麻粒岩相变质作用。但是，对含石榴石的镁铁质麻粒岩的详细工作则显示了包括3个阶段的近等温降压（ITD）的顺时针PT演化轨迹，M1：0．93GPa＞800℃：M2:0.65GPa,733-850℃;M3:0.46-0.61GPa，并有着与拉斯曼丘陵相似的演化历史。根据矿物组合和成分、变质反应结构及温压计算结果，格罗夫山镁铁质麻粒岩可能为高压麻粒岩。
